Got it working!

Thank you for the great support!

Hello.

Without further work, the Live Mapping works in such a way that the name of the mapped member (your property) is assumed to be the browse name of the node. In this case, since your property name is "diHMIDrawerVelocity", you are trying to map to a node with that browse name. But the actual browse name of that node, as can be seen on the screenshot, is "Application.PersistentVars.diHMIDrawerVelocity".

To resolve this, try to annotate the property with an additional

Hi!
It's an OPC variable.
Here's the screenshot.

Hello,

is "diHMIDrawerVelocity" an OPC UA Variable - isn't it an OPC UA Object? (an Object does not have a Value).
Can you send a screenshot of browsing for it using QuickOPC, or UAExpert?

Thank you

That worked perfectly! thanks for the help.
I was able to map the structure to a class using the UAGenericObject as suggested.

Another issue I ran into, is with a normal mapping of variables under the "PersistentVars" path (not the array and structure). I have around 20 variables that I want to map into a class called settings.

For example, to map:
Application.PersistentVars.diHMIDrawerHomeVelocity, I'm using:

and

But when I run, i get the following:

Can you please help on what I'm missing here?
Thanks!

Hello, this is a success. In terms of OPC UA Read, you *do* have a value already. Now you need to "unpack" it, because it is a custom data defined by the server. And yes, reversing my previous statement, now it is clear that you will need the Complex Data approach as well. Live Mapping, however, cannot be currently used to provide mapping of the custom structures to C# structures. The documentation part explaining the Complex Data is here: opclabs.doc-that.com/files/onlinedocs/OPCLabs-OpcStudio/Late...omplex%20Data%20Extension.html .

To get you started, I suggest you check out and understand this:

- In the Master property (which is of type OperationResult), there is a .Value property, and when the Read succeeds, it will contain a non-null UAGenericObject (as you can already see in the output you provided)..
- Inside the UAGenericObject there a .GenericData object, which can contain different types, but in your case it will probably of type StructuredData, and it contains fields that you can access by their name and extract individually.
- If you break into the debugger and display, or write out from the program itself, the value of ((UAGenericObject)Master.Value).GenericData.DebugView, you will get a nicely formatted outline of the data received. Post it here if further help is needed.

Ok, good news, we are moving forward! But I still can't read the value.

I changed it as you said and now I don't have any exception (Good!) but I still can't see the values inside the Master/Slave variables.

I changed my code to:

and got the following message: Rail[1] Master: Success; (nsu=urn:Schneider:M262:customprovider ;ns=2;Position) structured {UAGenericObject} @2024-05-31T11:16:20.667 @@2024-05-31T11:16:20.667; Good
Rail[1] Slave: 0

With this I assume that the software is returning me the variable on my array position [1], which is a structure right now (Position)

MY PLC CODE:

Hello,
please make following changes:

1) shorten the root browse path:

2) remove the ampersand at the end (you did that already before I suppose):

3) Add UANamespace attribute also to the Rail class:

Hopefully that will work, but if not, I am confident it is a step in the right direction, and we will go from there.

Best regards

Hi! Thanks for the reply.

Here is the first bit of the code:

and here is the second class:

Thanks. We are getting somewhere.

What you have is not correct, and I will try to figure out how you should do it. For complete picture, however, I first need the missing piece(s) of the code first. Specifically, at this point, please post here how the 'railData' variable (in your mapper.Map(....)) is declared and instantiated.

Best regards
